1988 Bromwich Cyclone Triple Fade

[narcotitlan]

Just bloody love this bike, it's my 3rd Bromwich, first was somehow too short and long at the same time, second was way too big, this one just fits like a glove in every way. It's super light, climbs really well, just a joy. I would;dn't go so far as to say it hawser wounds but it certainly has patina - for me a good thing as it means I'm more likely to actually ride it! At some point this will get new tyres/cables but happy with set up for now.
